The sensitive skin of the lips is the first to be affected during bad weather. Smoking, using poor quality lip patches, environmental pollution, and dehydration finance the processes of dry and cracked lips that gradually darken. Just like the complexion of our skin, we all have different shades of red on our lips. No particular color is healthy because it has to do with genetics, climate, and lifestyle. But in some cases, our lips become darker than their natural color, indicating that they need more care. Here are 3 simple home remedies to improve dark lips naturally.
Rose Petals
Before beautiful roses fall in your garden, put them to good use to enhance dark and blotchy lips. Roses can help you achieve lips as soft as their petals. They have the ability to soften and brighten your lips. Soak some petals in milk overnight and make a paste the next day. Apply rose and milk paste on lips and rinse after 15-20 minutes every day. The milk helps as a moisturizer and the essential oil of rose petals repairs dark lips.
Beet Root
Beetroot has a natural red pigment that turns everything it touches pink! You can slice it and rub it on your lips twice a day, or extract its juice and mix it with honey to apply it to your lips. You can use this mixture while you sleep wash it off the next morning and notice a gradual improvement day by day. It makes the lips softer, more hydrated, and rosy and you can have a perfect look.
Milk and Turmeric
Turmeric has been used to solve pigmentation problems since ancient times. Not only for your face but also for your lips, turmeric can lighten color and remove dead skin cells. Mix turmeric with a few drops of milk to make a paste that enhances lip color. This can be used regularly to restore your rosy lips and get soft and plump lips. Rinse the paste off with warm water after letting it sit for 15-20 minutes and apply a moisturizing lip balm to keep the benefits together. You can also rub it with ghee, coconut oil, or almond oil to reap the benefits faster and soften lips.
